Title VII

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act specifically protects employees from more than sexual harassment discrimination in the workplace and cover protections based on race, religion, color, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, and transgender status. Title VII means employers cannot treat these protected classes of employees differently than they do any other employee in any part of the employment process; hiring, termination, work assignments, promotions, transfers, pay, and benefits. Claims of discriminatory treatment require an immediate investigation and that is where employers can make real mistakes.
